Re: stoppies

120+ mph. they are more stable at high speeds.

seriously, try them around 30-45. it is much easier to learn them rolling rather than just poping them up at 5mph. try lifting the back wheel up and setting it down while your still rolling to get comfortable then try rolling them to a complete stop.

Re: stoppies

sound like its popping up at the end.

all in one fluid motion grba brake and transfer weight to the front. if t comes up stay on the brake the same and just try to roll them low and try to get it to a stop. slowly get higher and higher till your ******* puckers up tighter than a 12 year old virgin....thats balance point.

Re: stoppies

well dont pop them up at the end. its safer to roll them faster and lower until you start getting the feel for it. then it will come.. time and practice.

you dont have to take it to the limiter, just get going fast in first gear, unless you are stock geared...if youre stock geared, id so go about 50-60 mph.
